Hi Folks,

I hope you'll overlook the fact that I am an LT1 owner.
I have found many areas in common between the LT and LS cars and I do see a small LT1 section here so maybe I can slide by.

In dealing with one of your sponsors TomZwheels, I had some questions on if the wheels I received will actually work without a bunch of hassles or 'adjustments' (ie: using BFH, etc) he stated that many of you are running the same setup and suggested I post up here to help ease my mind.

I will post my questions shortly in the appropriate section.

Thanks,
Robert

Thanks for the warm welcome folks.

And I will be sure to check out the Western area section. I do enjoy getting together with other Fbody enthusiasts.

ZR1s 17x9.5 and 17x11. I was concerned that the rears couldn't be used without a lot of work, if at all. I posted the question in the wheels and tires section and soon got many replies with pictures, tips and where to apply the BFH.
